Hi,
I had the problem myself a couple of days ago. That’s the script I’m currently using (adapted from the ones above). You just need to replace the top half of the script provided in the Sample Tricks.
#! /bin/sh
### BEGIN INIT INFO
# Provides: openhab
# Required-Start: $remote_fs $syslog
# Required-Stop: $remote_fs $syslog
# Default-Start: 2 3 4 5
# Default-Stop: 0 1 6
# Short-Description: OpenHAB Daemon
### END INIT INFO
# Author: Thomas Brettinger
# Do NOT "set -e"
# PATH should only include /usr/* if it runs after the mountnfs.sh script

}
I have to say I’m not sure if it’s a 100% correct, but it seems to work without a problem.
